rSetup NuGet Private Feed for Telerik on VSTeamServices/MSBuild

[Will]

Instructions for setting-up a NuGet private feed on your development machine are given at http://docs.telerik.com/aspnet-mvc/getting-started/nuget-install. The following instructions allow you to do the same when running MSBuild on a Build machine such as hosted by Azure.

1. Add NuGet.config to WebApp project in Visual Studio
   • Add new item NuGet.config to same directory as project.json and edit as below, setting your own username and password (in clear text) as needed to logon to the Telerik site:
     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
     <configuration>
         <packageSources>
              <add key="Telerik" value="https://nuget.telerik.com/nuget/" />
         </packageSources>
         <packageSourceCredentials>
           <Telerik>
             <add key="Username" value="will.***@****.com" />
             <add key="ClearTextPassword" value="********" />
           </Telerik>
         </packageSourceCredentials>
     </configuration>

1. Edit Build Definition to add step for NuGet installer - In Visual Studio a) select Team Explorer, Builds b) select Build Definition, right click | Edit Build Definition. This opens the Build Definition in your browser - see attached screen shot
2. In Build Definition editor add build step = Nuget Installer, drag/drop to top of list and specify the solution file as well as the NugGet.config
3. Save
4. Save your changes to source control for the WebApp in Visual Studio - i.e. the Build Definition and NuGet.config
5. Queue a New Build

I hope this saves someone a bit of time.

Hello Will,

 

Thank you very much for this information. I think it would be indeed useful for many developers that deploy on Azure. 

 

I created a GitHub issue for this information to be added in the documentation. If you have any updates you can post comments here: https://github.com/telerik/kendo-ui-core/issues/2710. 

 

As a small token of gratitude for sharing your knowledge with the Kendo community, I am updating your account with some points.
